Newcastle United pulls clear of relegation zone

Newcastle United clashed with Aston Villa and survived to move out of the red zone after a difficult battle. Kieran Trippier was the one to pull the team ahead as Eddie Howe’s side scored their third successive win, the team’s best winning streak since 2018. Newcastle is out of the danger zone and might stay out with a four-point lead and a game’s advantage from bottom Norwich.

Steven Gerrard gave Aston Villa a hard time as they folded easily against the team that is ranked worse than them on the Premier League table. The Magpies added five January signings and it has definitely given the team an edge as they move ahead in the standings. Trippier scored with a low ball and spun the ball off the knee of Emiliano Buendia and pushed it past goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.
